Fell flat after the climatic ep7

ep 8 felt kinda flat for me.., in general the pace kinda slowed down after ep 4 when they got into sandbox, but the overarching story was set out so well it didn’t feel that much of a difference. But ep 8....? Felt totally like a bottle episode with just a bunch of filler scenes. for a couple reason tho:1. Idk maybe it’s just me but this was the episode where I started finding Dal-mi lowkey annoying and fake... idk man, they just tried too hard to make her look like the “perfect quirky and kind girl” it felt kinda fake ?....(like esp in the scenes w the ML and SML- she acts so dumb it’s annoying) but yo idk just a personal opinion.2. The DalMi-JiPyeong scenes felt super forced??? Maybe it’s just me again cos I’m not a MinJi shipper... but it just felt super forced. Like trying to shove down your throat the fact that Ji Pyeong is actually a super sweet guy when just an episode earlier he was effing mean? Like make up your mind bruh! Also it’s lowkey creepy how he does so much intimate stuffs w her... like you’re just her mentor. Like as much as you knew her 15 years ago, your current rship w her is just as a mentor... I felt like they rushed to gave them scenes so it just felt super creepy and forced imo.3. BRUH this has got to be the worse thing of this ep.... after the climatic kiss in ep7 they decided to give us.... NO FURTHER EXPLANATIONS? LIKE HELLO? are they dating? are they just friends but awkward to confess feelings? Are they just fwb? LOL what’s going on ?? @@ bitch ass really just said “I like your hands” after um..... 3 long kisses?? this ain’t America bruh, one small kiss in a kdrama means eeeeeverything, and bitch literally just went like “I like you for your hands” CRIIIIINGE. And also super anti-climatic?? Cos that was such a good kiss scene, now I feel like it meant absolutely nothing to them lol.just overall a super useless episode. Feel like I could skip this ep and not miss anything out. There wasn’t any important detail neither any important character growth. Some saving grace was maybe the DoSan-Grandma interaction? That was wholeeeesomeee. And the In Jae helping out Dal Mi scene? That was sick. Wish In Jae will hv more screentime.the preview for ep9 looks like it will pick up the pace again though, since it looks like the truth will finally come out. I hope they don’t make it anti climatic again. If not it’ll be suuuuper disappointing since so far it’s been pretty good, they cannot let the momentum die!!
